The anticipation for the sequel to Frozen only grows stronger, as the official trailer for Frozen 2 (or Frozen II, if we follow Disney's lead) has just been released. Disney will be returning cinemagoers to the snowy kingdom of Arendelle this November, although it won’t be quite as we have seen it before.

The first film was released in 2013, surpassing all expectations and becoming an international musical-animation sensation as well as the highest-grossing animated movie ever – winning Oscars for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song. Based loosely on Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen, it tells the story of brand-new Disney Princess Anna’s adventures to save her sister Elsa and her home from an endless winter, along with a few curious companions.

Anna is heading into darker territory in the sequel, as questions about the origins of her power and the strength to carry them through are all offered up. There's a quest to find the truth about her past, an encounter with an underwater horse made of glittering ice, a wise troll acting as a guide. Pretty standard stuff.

With songwriters Robert Lopez and Kirsten Anderson-Lopez returning with seven new songs for the movie, alongside co-director and writer Jennifer Lee, co-director Chris Buck, the core cast of Frozen will also be joined by Evan Rachel Wood (Westworld) and Sterlin K. Brown (This Is Us) in unconfirmed roles.

Plenty, then, for the internet to dream about in the months ahead of release.
